In reply to a new life on zero drugs., posted by gretta on July 16, 2007, at 21:17:14

I am stable emotionally and mentally because
I take my drugs, prescribed and tailored by
my drs. to the best of their ability years ago.
I was probably one of the lucky ones. I live with many side effects, which have detracted from what i once used to be. But I have accepted this as a necessity of my life.

I don't doubt that some psychiatric cases are
mistakes in dx where drugs are not necessary
on a chronic basis. And so, not being on drugs may in those cases be an epiphany.

For those whom I believe to need them, I have
made a promise to myself and my ****** to never, ever again make a helpful suggestion on the basis of my university education, nor my net studies,
nor experience and observation,
nor even their request.

I say this because i just received a very vindictive and uncalled for reaction from someone who asked for advice and got it from me. Not everyone can be counted on
not to transform personal help into something blameworthy and a weapon for personal motives.

Speaking to your doctor is the best, and taking net advice anonymously and with a grain of salt, probably second best. If your doctor lets you go without drugs and you make that decision for yourself, taking the risks and the consequences, good for you and good luck.

And the net studies (such as found on PubMed) are there for all to read.
